Prosecutors on Tuesday demanded a 30-month prison term for Japanese Red Army member Mariko Yamamoto for allegedly obtaining a passport illegally for a fellow member in 1974.
The prosecutors said Yamamoto, 61, was involved in a "malicious crime" to systematically dispatch international terrorists abroad on the instruction of Fusako Shigenobu, 56, the founder of the radical group.
They argued it is clear that Yamamoto acted under the direction of Shigenobu based on testimony offered by an alleged male accomplice.
